LETTER BABY

A long, long time ago I used to self-publish a little book called MAGICAL MUSIC. I forgot all about a pattern I had in that book for a “Letter Baby” until someone tweeted her kids singing the song with their visuals. Maybe some of your children will enjoy it as well.

THE ALPHABET IN MY MOUTH(Tune: “He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands”)I’ve got the whole alphabet in my mouth,I’ve got the whole alphabet in my mouth.I’ve got the whole alphabet in my mouthand I can read!I’ve got A - /a/ /a/ in my mouthI’ve got B - /b/ /b/ in my mouthI’ve got C - /c/ /c/ in my mouth…ZAnd I can read!I’ve got all the sounds in my mouth, And I’m ready to read!*Children spin the wheel around to display the letters as they sing the song.

Here’s another visual to help children focus on letters and sounds.Color and cut out the bus using the pattern. Add magnetic tape to the back and place it on a magnetic board. Put magnetic letters in the window as you sing the song.

The Letters on the Bus (Tune: “The Wheels on the Bus”) The letters on the bus all make their sounds, Make their sounds, Make their sounds. The letters on the bus all make their sounds All around the town. The B on the bus goes /b/ /b/ /b/, /b/ /b/ /b, /b/ /b/ /b/, The B on the bus goes /b/ /b/ /b/ all around the town.https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1SnEagA4jljR3NjWS1rT1ZZbjA/view?usp=sharing
